When the government, non-profit, and private sector come together, magic happens. @NanaAcademy develops our nation’s workforce and empowers tomorrow’s tradespeople to control their economic destiny.
A path to a new future is what @NanaAcademy provides #hospitality workers after #pandemic job losses. With partner @SelfHelpElderly, the #AAPI focused program trains them to become appliance techs, a trade in high demand. Hear from founder @DavidZamir & a student. #abc7now

@aditya_advani @JoeCassandra @kevinleeme @NanaAcademy Exactly what we are doing, with the power of software and B2B vertically integrated marketplace.
I want to thank @abc7david and @abc7newsbayarea for covering Sam's story. I can now share that @NanaAcademy, @SelfHelpElderly and @sfoewd built a unique program that teaches the appliance repair trade skill. We couldn't do this without the policy of @USDOL @SecMartyWalsh.

@NanaAcademy technician, Justin Nunn, was featured on @GMA. There are two open jobs for each unemployed individual. This trend will accelerate automation. The laborers will go to jobs/marketplaces where they earn more and feel fulfilled. At @nana, Justin makes 3X more.
The job market is booming right now, with an estimated 11.3 million job openings currently need to be filled. @eriellereshef has more on how companies are offering attractive benefits and higher salaries to keep up in the competitive market. https://t.co/kWY5S6eOU4

Another talent migration shift is happening now. If talent was looking to join a mission driven company before, now they evaluate how recession proof the business is. Time to join a recession proof company. Check us out

Thank you, @hall_marye and @NewsNation team, for taking the time to write about the #futureofwork in the trades, led by @NanaAcademy, starting with the appliance repair trade. “I can knock out four more jobs before the day’s done and still have time later with my son"
52% of workers are expected to be gig workers within the next five years — yet on average they make 58% less than full-time workers. @NanaAcademy is one of a growing number of startups taking a trade school approach to improving workers' skills and pay. https://t.co/eUR6akIOJw

What a pleasure it was to sit down with @nytimes business and economics columnist @PeterCoy to discuss the evolution of what’s considered a “good job” by today’s measures and how @NanaAcademy is building the future of work. https://t.co/vju3uU1xEw

An initiative to define what makes jobs bad or good is long overdue.

I asked a while ago what startup has the best swag, turns out the one I work at. @NanaAcademy made us a bunch of North Face fleeces that are seriously off the chain.

The future of labor markets is decentralized. @nana is moving the middle man away through a vertically integrated B2B managed marketplace. Starting with the appliance repair market. https://t.co/tRPvty4Tnc

Plenty of people need jobs with very flexible hours -- but it's difficult for those people to connect with the employers who need them. Wingham Rowan is working on that. He explains how the same...

Congratulations to Robin on hitting #100jobs on the #NanaHome platform! As a #femaletechnician, Robin not only brings peace of mind to many of her customers, but also helps others see that they too can become #tradespeople. Build a Nana for the people: https://t.co/PEpRtxO3Hf

Thread 🧵 This is our first government-subsidized partnership cohort. 🦋 When I immigrated to the US with $600 back in June 2013, I was terrified by the uncertainty ahead. I didn't know if I'd be able to make it. Emotions of embarrassment and shame filled my heart—it was hard.

There is something beautiful about unpolished videos. Innovation starts messy. I missed the people so much. After a 3-week vacation, I’m back. I’ll share more about this unique group of individuals that joined the trades, and about why it’s so important to take long breaks soon
